Still alive. Antidepressants are real neat.

I will reevaluate my meds to see what isn't working for me anymore, but I still appreciate this little win.

Admitted to my SO that I'm severely depressed and feel like a husk of the person that I used to be. Just always thinking of what else needs to be done while being too tired to do anything good for myself or talk to anyone. Then an hour later I pulled this card and was momentarily cured.

Neat

I forget this site exists sometimes

SEE YOU NEXT MONTH, NERDS

She's taking her job very seriously

I'm officially in "I want to get off Mr. Bones' Wild Ride" territory, but my unborn baby just keeps sending me this picture instead.

Spent my Christmas hanging out with my SO, eating an obscene amount of barbacoa tacos, and watching almost an entire season of 90 Day Fiance. Just as god intended.

Sometimes I have to remind my dumb ass that although I am temporarily sharing my body with a baby, we are not sharing minds. The baby cannot hear your thoughts, Aera.

"Hey Cyclops are you still dating Jean?"
"No Storm, we broke up. You could say she's my..."

*eye beams obliterate Storm*

My cat, an idiot: Those ornaments look exactly like my toys. Why can’t I play with them?

Me, pinnacle of animals: That felt frog wearing a top hat is to celebrate The Lord

New love language discovered: Reciting lines from Dracula Flow with my SO

The sad sick boy club 🥺 Let's hope these new meds do the trick because I've been keeping him home from daycare for TOO LONG

This year really is the year where I look around at my life and highlight the things that I don't like. I'm tackling the things that can be fixed and axing the ones that can't. It's sort of worked out in phases, with each hurdle being a temporary uncomfortable feeling, but it passes. Then I grow.

Getting kicked from inside your own body by a separate entity is the weirdest fucking feeling. What started a month ago as "is that fluttering a gas bubble or is the baby moving around" has turned into "I ate some Spaghettios so now she's spazzing out with GMod physics for the unforeseeable future."

Took the day off and asked myself what I want to do. Turns out that is lying in bed all day while eating Halloween candy and watching sad anime movies.

Hahaha, the cheeseball 1998 Godzilla movie still makes me cry 20+ years later. HE'S JUST AN ANIMAL.

One of the dumbest little snippets of light in my life is how jazzed my 16-year-old cat gets when I open a new bag of food. She always rushes over so excitedly as I pour the food into a storage bin, even if it's dog food. She's just a fan of a fresh bag.

I do not apologize for all the mean girls spam on your skyline. It’s october 3rd.

not a cell phone in sight. just people living in the moment

I'm going to go home today and be sad because I miss this group of friends. Then I'm gonna keep making choices that put me in the company of wonderful, caring, shitposty people.

I'm just super amazed whenever I spend time with great friends like, "Whoa, you mean I DON'T have to put myself on the back burner constantly because someone thinks anything other than being a quiet, emotionally repressed Midwesterner is toxic?"

It's wild how much mentally healthier I am now that I surround myself with people who share my wholesome goblin energy rather than me trying desperately for years to meet the uncommunicated expectations of people who, it turns out, just did not like me.

I haven't really been crazy into Star Wars in a while, but that latest episode of Ahsoka had me like
